CONFIRMED Andre Brooks sold to Norwich

[Berkshire Blade]

Depends on the fee.

We don't know it. So anyone commenting either way is a bit silly.

Personally I would have rather sold a Hamer but I am not sure Brooks is going to be a top level player either..

 

[SufcBilly]

Hall saying potential 8 figure fee with add ons. So you’d think somewhere in the £6-7 mill upfront range?

 

[bladesmanluke]

They can get my season ticket refunded straight away

 

[Lowen]

If he’s been sold to a championship club the fee is not gonna be the type of one where you say fair enough. I think this is a shameful sale for the club to move a talented homegrown player on in this way.

 

[CoatesyBlade]

The fuck are we playing at!! I can’t get my head around this one… makes no sense selling one of our most talented players to Norwich.
Board out!
Wilder out!

 

[Balti Pie]

Norwich will be challenging for autos this season - they have a top manager and they're backing him

 

[Jan Age]

Appalling transfer business. Genuinely laughable.

I hope we aren’t in for a summer of asset stripping with not reinvestment.

Brookes was one I would keep and build around but if we are honest wilder has had his issues with him over time and unfortunately he’s the man in charge so he’s probably said yes he can go

Fucking wankers

Rather sell Hamer over Brooks

Id rather keep hamer over brooks.

Anyway whats everyone moaning at? We have hos replacement. Hes ar world cup.. makes way for chongy.

 

[coolasanidiot]

It stinks. Him and Seriki were literally the only highlight last season. Sends out such an early shit message.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Unbelievable statement of intent for our club going into a new season. Arguably our most improved player last season.

I will of course withdraw that statement if we are signing Gyökeres.

 

[AdamSufc1997]

Chris slags him and Seriki in press is anyone Suprised. Unless we bring in decent. It’s not looking good as he was our only creativity on the wings

 

[CoatesyBlade]

You watch Norwich sell him in 2yrs time for 25mil an all!

 

[Danetheblade]

Do you seriously think that Wilder sold him , the money men sign off these deals. CW it's probably as pissed off as the rest of us.

Possibly.. Though we're talking about a player who Wilder constantly bemoaned.

 

[bladesmanluke]

One week a 2/10 the next 7/10. I can live without Brooks. Hopefully decent money, but overall I’m not bothered he’s gone.

If he wasn’t a local lad he would have been slated every week and his name dragged through the dirt

What on earth are you talking about? Please name a winger in United's history that's consistent if Brooks isn't?

 

[Badger Blade]

Norwich?!?!?!

Jesus christ, that sums up our ambitions for this season.

Leeds, Forest, Fulham as a development player who will get the odd run out or a newly promoted side I'd understand but this is akin to getting promoted and selling Sander Berge to Burnley.

 

[Bladesman]

Unbelievable statement of intent for our club going into a new season. Arguably our most improved player last season.

I will of course withdraw that statement if we are signing Gyökeres.

6 goals 3 assists.

3 goals 2 assists season before.

 

[WhittingtonBlade]

My theory is Wilder has agreed this as we have no other good wingers and he wants to go back to 352 or 3421 next season so Brooks wouldn't get as much game time, which would decrease his future value.

 

[mattbianco1]

2 tier reporting from Hog Staton

For the pigs he reports
"Package could be worth more than £1m"



For united it's "A blow", even though he doesn't know the value of the deal

 

[RecordBreakers]

Joke sale.. I've not renewed as of yet an shit like this is pushing me towards not bothering tbh!

 

[Bladesman]

You watch Norwich sell him in 2yrs time for 25mil an all!

Aye but we likely have a sell on and Norwich do get a tidy sum for players they sell.

 

[Linz]

Brooks won Players' Player of the Year didn't he?

I wonder how the dressing room will react to that one.

 

[Jan Age]

I always get a bad feeling when it says ‘undisclosed’ … I would say £6 - £8 million should do it ? Possibly a bit higher ?

 

[FredZeppelin]

Wonder if this'll allow Chris to bring in Ogbene on a permanent?

Every silver lining and all that...

utb

 

[Æthelstan]

If he’s been sold to a championship club the fee is not gonna be the type of one where you say fair enough. I think this is a shameful sale for the club to move a talented homegrown player on in this way.

Moving a talented homegrown player, who has been steadily improving over the season with more potential to grow, to a rival side.

I am baffled.

He was a key player in many of our games too.

I am bamboozled.

 

[bakeblade]

Rather sell Hamer over Brooks

Hamer will also go. We could now bring in Cleary from Dingles

 

[Chezzy Blades]

With him going, Ogbene going and Shackleton being well, Shackleton, does that make our Curacaoan star Chong our new starting right winger?

 

[wf9-Danny]

No ambition.

Others could have gone and not been missed, it better be a very big fee.

Hall saying potential 8 figure fee with add ons. So you’d think somewhere in the £6-7 mill upfront range?

Hall famously never wrong
